kwmlondon 23 Posted October 21, 2020 I'd like to recommend Jeff Beers of Zero One guitars in West Wales. He did an amazing job of sorting out issues on my Gibson SG and was brutally honest about a bass I took to him - he showed me all the problems with it and suggested I sell it for parts, doing himself out of some work in the process. The SG came back like a new instrument, I can't recommend him enough. Lovely guy, very talented and incredible eye for detail. https://www.facebook.com/pages/category/Local-Business/ZERO-ONE-Guitars-393710820789091/ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Easier to get him on the phone rather than email McIntyre Guitars Unit 5B Albion Business Centre 78 Albion Road Edinburgh EH7 5QZ Scotland United KingdomTel: 07764747450 email: [email protected]Links I just had Chris do some electronics fixes and set ups on 2 basses for me. Both came out well. If you want to get hold of him it’s best to text or call his mobile rather than email. He is pretty busy at the minute. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Telebass 86 Posted November 10, 2020 On the original post, Tom Anfield seems to be oop north somewhere, but unless there are two, Tom is to be found in SE Cornwall, see http://www.tomanfieldguitars.com/. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Wow - he’s moved. He was in Putney many moons ago. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mckendrick 10 Posted November 30, 2020 Are there any luthiers people wouldn't recommend? Also.... has anybody ever employed the services of a Joseph Kaye of Southgate Road, London N1...? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Silky999 97 Posted December 9, 2020 I’d recommend Richard Pilkington at Reading Guitar Repairs. He’s based on the Henley side of Reading and specialises in the woodwork side of things. He did a fantastic job fitting some pickups and a preamp for me though. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
inthedoghouse 238 Posted February 3 If you're in the Potteries you won't get better than Doug Wilkes for repairs or custom builds - a true craftsman in every sense. He built a guitar for Dave Gilmour. http://wilkesguitars.co.uk/ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
